Compiling LyX 2.0 for Win32 and creating Windows installer
==========================================================
It's recommended to compile LyX using Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 and CMake.
Pre-compiled packages with dependencies are provided for this environment.
Compiling with Microsoft Visual C++
===================================
These instructions assume the LyX source code is in C:\LyX\lyx-20
You can also use another directory if you prefer.
1 Install MSVC 2010
If you don't have Visual C++ 2010 installed, get the free Express edition from
http://www.microsoft.com/express/Downloads/
(All dependencies are linked against the MSVC 2010 runtime and won't work in
combination with MSVC 2008. You'll get crashes and other unexpected issues.)
2 Install Qt
Download the latest Qt for Open Source C++ development on Windows (VS2010)
from http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/windows-cpp-vs2010.
3 Install Python
Install the latest Python 2.x version (not Python 3.x !) from
http://www.python.org/download/
4 Install CMake
Install the latest CMake from http://www.cmake.org
5 Configure
- Run the CMake GUI.
- Set the source code path to C:\LyX\lyx-20
Set the build path to C:\LyX\lyx-20-build
Click Configure and set the generator to Visual Studio 10.
- Enable LYX_DEPENDENCIES_DOWNLOAD and click Configure.
Pre-compiled dependencies will automatically be downloaded.
- Set QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE to e.g.
C:\Qt\qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.1\bin\qmake.exe
and Configure again.
- Enable the LYX_INSTALL option, set CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to
C:\LyX\lyx-20-install and click Configure.
- Check the Advanced checkbox.
Set GETTEXT_MSGFMT_EXECUTABLE to
C:\LyX\lyx-20-build\msvc2010-deps\deps20\gettext-tools\msgfmt.exe,
and do the same for the other gettext tools.
- Click Generate.
6 Compile
A Microsoft Visual C++ solution should have been generated at
C:\LyX\lyx-20-build\lyx.sln
Compile the INSTALL project to get a LyX installation in
C:\LyX\lyx-20-install
7 Copy dependencies
Copy
- C:\LyX\lyx-20-build\msvc2010-deps\deps20\bin
- C:\LyX\lyx-20-build\msvc2010-deps\deps20\imagemagick
- C:\LyX\lyx-20-build\msvc2010-deps\deps20\python
- C:\LyX\lyx-20-build\msvc2010-deps\deps20\ghostscript
- C:\LyX\lyx-20-build\msvc2010-deps\deps20\Resources
to C:\LyX\lyx-20-install
And copy from the Qt bin directory
(e.g. C:\Qt\bin)
QtCore4.dll
QtGui4.dll
QtCore4d.dll (if compiling Debug version)
QtGui4d.dll (if compiling Debug version)
to C:\LyX\lyx-20-install\bin
8 Define path prefix
Add the following line to C:\LyX\lyx-20-install\Resources\lyxrc.dist,
so LyX will find the bundled tools such as Python, ImageMagick
and Ghostscript:
\path_prefix "$LyXDir\bin;$LyXDir\python;$LyXDir\imagemagick;$LyXDir\ghostscript"
You may also add the location of your LaTeX installation if it's not on the
system PATH, and the location of JabRef.
9 Start LyX
C:\LyX\lyx-20-install\bin\lyx.exe
Creating the Installer
======================
- Get NSIS from http://nsis.sourceforge.net
- In the LyX source directory, go to development\Win32\packaging\installer
- Check whether the file locations in settings.nsh match your setup.
- Right-click on lyx.nsi and click "Compile NSIS Script".
